6.1. Customer - Read access

tracking codes.

6.4. Orders - Read and Write
This option allows Shiptimize to have access to other information necessary to complete shipping labels,
such as the address of the shipping address.

6.5. Products - Read access
Thus, it will be possible for Shiptimize to read order items necessary for, for example, filling out customs
forms.

6.6. Script tags - Read and Write
This option allows Shiptimize to add scripts to the checkout, making it possible to display options such as
the pick-up points.

6.7. Shipping - Read access
So, you can choose which carrier to match with a shipping method.

                                                                                                               6

Configuration

After integrating the Shipimize app for Shopify, it's time to configure your account options.

1. Update order status in your Shopify store.

If you want to send updates regarding the status of orders to your store using the tracking ID’s generated on the
Shiptimize platform, check the box “Update track code to shop”.

2. Carriers

Choose which Shiptimize partner carriers you would like to assign to each shipping method in your Shopify
store.

3. Status

Choose, in each order status category, which status types you want to import into Shiptimize.

4. Google Maps

By default, we display an OpenStreetMap when your customer chooses to pick up the product at a pickup point,
if the carrier offers this option. If you prefer to use a Google map, enter your Google key in the “Google Maps
Integration Key” field.

                                                                                                                    12

  3. Click “Start import”

Your orders will be imported and will be available under “Shipping” > “Shipments Overview”

                                                                                             13

Automated updates between Shiptimize / PakketMail and Shopify

If you selected "update track code to shop" in the setting, as soon as you create a shipping label, we send the
associated tracking number to Shopify.

Additionally, from your Shiptimize account (Settings > Connect > Shop details) or from your PakketMail
account (Settings > Shops) you can set in which moment(s) order statuses in your Shopify backend should be
updated.

You can select to update when (1) an order is imported into your shipping dashboard, (2) a shipping label has
been printed, (3) the shipment has been delivered.

                                                                                                                  14

The Checkout for your Customer incl. Pickup Locations

After installation and configuration, if a carrier provides a service to deliver to a Pickup Location directly, a
map will be added, allowing the user to select their preferred location.

                                                                                                                    15
